What led to the selection of coffee versus other beverages for Get Supr?
Coffee was the first beverage, I had to remove/replace due to my anxiety disorder. So naturally when I learned there was a way to still have it included in my morning routine – I jumped at the chance to drink it again!
Can you share with our readers what benefits they can receive from using Get Supr?
Our CBD works in harmony with caffeine. It slows the release of the caffeine to give you calm, focused energy without the jitters or caffeine high/lows. Our consumers have reported that they experience benefits of increased energy, lessened jitters or bodily triggers from caffeine, pain relief, and help with sleep at night. Coffee also packs major antioxidants that support such things as insulin sensitivity and inflammation.
Get Supr uses water-soluble CBD versus oil-soluble CBD. What is the difference between the two?
Water-soluble CBD has a higher bioavailability – in short, it helps your body to both absorb it and retain the benefits as it passes through the digestive system. Basically, you can think of CBD extract in oil form is a big blob (very scientific, I know). When this blob of oil enters your stomach it’s too large to pass through your gut lining and enter systemic circulation without being broken down by enzymes and passed along the liver for processing. By converting the oil to a water-soluble powder, the oil-blob is broken down into tiny, nano-sized pieces. This conversion process allows for your body to properly absorb the CBD without sacrificing bioavailability.
What kind of hemp is used and where is it sourced from?
Broad spectrum cbd hemp extract from Kentucky.
How many cups of Get Supr should one person have during the day? Can someone have too much CBD?
We recommend 1 stick pack of Get Supr per day which is one cup of coffee + 0.02 grams of our hemp cbd extract. We inform our consumers to approach Get Supr the way they would normally dose or regulate their CBD consumption. For those trying it for the first time, we recommend starting with 1 stick pack and seeing how they feel afterward 🙂
What’s next for the brand in 2022?
We are hoping to launch into more retailers and expand our brand to hopefully a few more beverages!
